How To Be A Sweet Presidential Candidate

Tue, 14 Oct 2008 02:58:59 +0000

Jill over at Simple Daily Recipes sent me this link for chocolate presidential candy molds. Apparently you can be sweet to everyone and run for President of the United States.

Yes, there a little creepy. But tell me you wouldn’t dunk one of these in peanut butter and go to town?

Walk Like A Duck Talk Like A Duck

Here at Bubble Thoughts we like it when other people get a chance to say what they really think and this piece of video from Jack Cafferty is a good example. Right or wrong, agree or disagree, here is an open expression of opinion without the political correctness that neuters conversations.

What Caused The Wall Street Bailout?

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 19:44:11 +0000

There’s been a lot of talk this week about the proposed Wall Street bailout by the US government, but what’s not discussed with any depth is how these conditions came about.

What factors contributed to the collapse and how was it allowed to happen in the first place?

To answer these questions we have to understand how money really works and how it is created. There is a lot more going on in the world banking system than just a few greedy fat cats on Wall Street.

This video explains in easy terms what is going on and how it will probably happen again. You will be amazed by what you are about to learn.

It’s Hard To Sell Air Conditioners To Eskimos

Ron Paul is one of those fellas that you might overlook at a party, but he is probably the best conversationalist in the room. While I was looking for George Bush’s bailout address to the American public I came across this straight talk about the issue. Apparently he was talking about this a year ago.

Does Twitter Validate Your Existence?

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 13:31:43 +0000

Art has historically served as an outlet for self expression and as a tool for societal reflection. In a lot of ways technology has taken on that same role and with the explosion of creative tools and platforms to distribute, the lines between art and technology are becoming blurred.

To prove the point, here is an awesome song that captures how social media is shaping our online experience. This video was likely to be shot on a digital video camera, edited by software, posted on YouTube and now shared with you from BubbleThoughts, so hows that for art and technology coming together. Enjoy.

What Do Hackers And Sara Palin Have In Common?

Sat, 20 Sep 2008 03:21:53 +0000

They’ve both been into her yahoo email accounts. Apparently hackers broke into Sarah Palin’s Yahoo mail accounts using the password reset feature of Yahoo mail and posted screen shots of her email on the Wikileaks whistle-blowing site.

According to a story published on the BBC website, she had two Yahoo email accounts.

I don’t know about you, but all I use my old Yahoo account for is trapping spam sites that make me give an address to download something. Yahoo hasn’t had my business since they sold out their customer base for some quick cash back when the dot com bubble burst and ad revenue went in the toilet.

Apparently there are some issues to consider since Palin is under investigation for her activities while governing the fine state of Alaska. Somewhere during all of this hacking business her accounts were deleted. I don’t know about you, but that is pretty convenient timing. Oh, I’m not saying she planned it. I’m just saying it sure is convenient.

Six Minutes I Can Never Reclaim

Thu, 18 Sep 2008 13:31:46 +0000

Here is a cat lovin’ crazy video that claim six minutes of my life one day on an early Thursday morning. I’m sorry to do this too you, but if you push the play button, I can’t be held responsible.

This is the edited clean version

Thanks once again to Matthew Hendryx in Liverpool for the video link.

And no, I’m not a cat lover or a cat hater. But I do agree that stupid music videos are the best use for them. Dogs have more dignity than that and wouldn’t be caught dead in a stupid YouTube music video…I double dog dare you to find one.

Is Licking Your Hand In Public A Bad Idea?

My hand always smells like slobber when I try that.

American Workers Are Fundamentally Strong

Wed, 17 Sep 2008 15:24:00 +0000

Look! Can we all agree that the American worker is fundamentally strong? All those in favor….All those opposed…..There, the Ayes have it. The American worker is fundamentally strong. What’s that? The American economy? What about it….sure sure, there are some issues, but we’re talking about the worker here….we’re not? Oh, you mean the American economy is fundamentally strong….no…it’s not strong….it’s in crisis? Okay, I’m confused. We all just agreed that the American worker is fundamentally strong, can’t we just leave it at that and go on. No, I don’t think they are the same…no I don’t mind if you disagree…no I don’t know whose idea it was to pick Palin….I do not know…….there I said it…..are you happy…I DON’T KNOW…

Signed,

John McCain

PS. Call me, we’ll do lunch sometime. Dutch of course.
